Recycle your phone

Cellphone production requires coltan, a metallic ore found almost exclusively in endangered gorilla and elephant habitats in eastern DR Congo. Recycling your phone reduces pressure on these animals. Find a recycling outlet near you.

Raise your voice of concern

Talk to to others in your community. Encourage the media to increase its coverage of threats to great ape populations. Start by getting your local newspaper, radio or television station to cover the bushmeat crisis.
